www.zanzibarscoffee.com I have never found coffee better than this and I seek everywhere I go. I am sure I am a bit biased, since I used to work there and know the roaster personally-she's has a real gift for the perfect roast. I live in PA now but still get my beans from Iowa.

This place is in MA and roasts some great coffee. I've ordered from them several times:

Add me to the Peets.com camp (from long before they even left the bay area from my Bezerkeley days).
Now for the lazy at heart, I've been pleasantly surprised by the performance of my Tassimo. Good cofee selection, and the Latte/Capuccino is great for a late evening cup. Definitely NOT for the pot-a-day drinker. If you want a pot, make it with Peets!

Surprised nobody has mentioned Trader Joe's. They don't roast coffee on the premises, but there is a great selection of whole bean dark roast coffee, not to mention wine, cheese, imported goodies, mixed nuts (better than what you'd get in First Class, if your airline of choice still gives nuts)
No internet ordering available, but if you have a store in your area, plan to spend a good hour looking around at good stuff.
I was surprised to find they have opened a location in NYC, so folks out there can now enjoy.

I've been drinking good coffee since before Starbucks entered everyone's lexicon. When most people were fighting over Folgers and Maxwell House I started working in real coffee store. I was ruined for life. Looking back it helped me develop my palatte nicely. I'm certifiable snob.
I found the ultimate micro roaster in Chicago: http://intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/coffee. I knew the minute I walked in store this was gunna be *good*. And oh my lord beans were just gorgeous. I took two half-pounds home with me on the plane and I'm sure drive people nuts. They definiately do mail order. And get me some while you're at it.
Oh, I just remembered another one: http://caffetrieste.com/SBBB/SBBBcoffeebuyer.html. They're in San Francisco.

Ancora Coffee
I have not personally tried Ancora coffee yet but I have friends who order and love it. Worth a try!

Porto Rico is a great, old-world NYC institution (been around for a century), and they take mail and web orders. Top notch, and I highly recommend their product.
